Minton Fables Tile The Boar and Fox in Blue and White

Price: $98.00

A crisp transfer of Aesops Fable, The Wild Boar And The Fox: A Wild Boar stood under a tree and rubbed his tusks against the trunk. A Fox passing by asked him why he thus sharpened his teeth when there was no danger threatening from either huntsman or hound. He replied, ''I do it advisedly; for it would never do to have to sharpen my weapons just at the time I ought to be using them.'' The tile is siliconed into a simple black wood frame. There is a small glaze miss on the upper right corner and a craze line in the boar.
